The Army and Navy Academy was established in 1910 in San Diego. In 1936, it moved to Carlsbad. The school is still run as a military prep school with a student body of more than 300 male students. Between 90 to 95 percent of graduates pursue a college or university education. The Army and Navy Academy is the only school of its type in California.
Instructions
1. Check out the different sports programs of the Warriors. The philosophy of discipline and teamwork goes hand in hand with athletics. There are nine varsity sports and three sports clubs.
2. Relax at the recreation hall with a panorama of the Pacific Ocean. Cadets are allowed to use the beach whenever Army and Navy lifeguards are on duty. Weekends include school trips to local attractions such as Disneyland, Universal Studios and SeaWorld.
3. Prepare to be supervising other cadets. Student life is set up as a battalion, a military configuration that promotes cadets based on academics, conduct and other leadership qualities. A basic principle of the academy is discipline.
4. Tour the Army Navy campus to meet other cadets and staff and get a feeling for what your life will be like as a cadet. Call the Admissions Office at (888) 762-2338 to make an appointment for a tour.
